Yuan Zhen: Inside The Cold, Hollow, Ancient Resort Palace Lonel 元稹 寥落古行宫 宫花寂寞红

XING GONG:"The Resort Palace"
-YUAN ZHEN (779-831)
-Translated by Frank C Yue

Inside the cold, hollow, ancient Resort Palace lonely,
Quiet red flowers bloom in the imperial garden.
A handful of white-hair'd courtesans, locked-in without pardon,
Sat around and talked of Emperor Xuanzong leisurely.


【行宫】 唐• 元稹

寥落古行宫,
宫花寂寞红。
白头宫女在,
闲坐说玄宗。
